World renowned organist Mark Herman has been a Cincinnati favorite, and he’ll be at the keyboard to pull out all the holiday stops with seasonal music. The evening will be hosted by Evans Mirageas, Cincinnati Opera’s Harry T. Wilks Artistic Director and a veteran radio commentator and event emcee.

Vocalists Thomas Dreeze, bass, and Jennifer Cherest, soprano, are Cincinnati Opera regulars, will sing holiday favorites. Audiences will remember Thom's critically-acclaimed performances as Count Capulet in the Cincinnati Opera's June 2019 production of Romeo and Juliet. Jennifer recently appeared in Cincinnati Opera at 100, a one-hour special of performances and historical highlights that were recorded at different venues, in deference to the current pandemic.

We also welcome back dancers from the Cincinnati Ballet’s Otto M. Budig Academy.
